"Membership code, 'Silver Eagle 991'."

As soon as Maca's voice fell, the long-crumbling wizard statue suddenly seemed to have fallen into a space that had gone back in time, and the stone fragments flew back to where they should have been, and gathered in the blink of an eye.

When a faint glow quietly passed, the entire statue was restored to its original state, and it was no longer possible to see what it had just looked.

"Welcome back, Mr. Silver Eagle 991."

In Tonks' hesitant gaze, the wizard statue spoke, and the bottom of the pool blurred. By the time it became clear again, the dirty bottom of the pool had turned into a spiraling staircase.

"Take care to keep Magus transformed, and ......," Maca thought for a moment, "and try not to speak for a while." ”

"Why?"

Tonks looked down, only to see that it was completely dark underneath the stairs.

"Anyway, just don't talk." Maca shook her head and said, "You don't want to have anything to do with those guys down there......"

With that, he lifted his leg and walked into the pool. Seeing him descend step by step with the steps, Tonks didn't think much about it, so he quickly followed.

The spiral staircase is long, and after a few steps, you can't see anything around you.

Maca lit her wand in front of her, and the two of them leaned on the light and walked down with a click. This descending passage feels rather narrow, and at least a big man like Hagrid would never get in.

In fact, Tonks is now eager to ask where this leads to something. But because Maca had just reminded her not to speak, she had to close her mouth.

After continuing down for some distance, a light suddenly appeared in front of him. And in the next moment, that light quickly spread the entire field of vision......

“…… Sir, are there two of you? ”

As Maca spoke softly to a waiter-like man, Tonks stood behind him, cautiously surveying the upscale hall beneath the Old Square.

Yes, if there was one word to describe this place, it would be the word "high-end".

The hall doesn't look ornate, on the contrary, it's black and white, and although it's quite spacious and comfortable, it's not complicated.

To the left of the lobby for guests, there is a café-like lounge space, and there is a bar at the door, where the bartenders look a little idle.

On the right side of the hall, there are corridors and separate private rooms.

There aren't many people here.

As Tonks was secretly observing the mysterious wizards on her left, Maca called her lightly and walked towards the rest area first.

"Two glasses of ice water."

As he passed the bar, he ordered a nonsensical drink, then took Tonks straight to a round table where it was already occupied.

Tonks, probably a little uncomfortable with the atmosphere, shrank down next to Maca.

When the two of them sat down, the other two guests who were originally sitting at this table did not react much. They only paused for a moment to talk about the topic and looked at the two new strangers in front of them.

"Are you two talking about something interesting?" Maca asked calmly.

Originally sitting at this table were a man and a woman.

The wizard looked a little tall and thin, and sat on the soft sofa, giving him a lazy feeling; The witch is dressed a little exposed, her skin is delicate and white, and she looks very well-maintained.

The faces of these two wizards don't seem to be much hidden, but anyone who comes here knows that what they can see on the surface is 100% fake.

Probably because of the rules here, Maca and Tonks sat down rashly, and they didn't cause others to resent it. After all, the people who come here have the same purpose.

It is a high-end information exchange club in the black market, and the selection of members is very strict. If Maca hadn't been connected to the Werther family, she might not have found her way so quickly.

"It's not 'that person' yet...... Recently, the British wizarding community has had a lot of peace! But everyone knows that this quiet is only temporary, and it is just the calm before the storm. ”

Hearing Maca's inquiry, the witch with a pride in her grace replied casually. It can be seen that her gaze only lingered on Tonks for a few seconds before falling completely on Maca's side.

Obviously, Tonks' nervous appearance did not leave any impression on her as "valuable".

"'That man'...... Is it? Marka nodded slightly, "Now that the 'two' from Hogwarts are here, at least 'he' wouldn't dare to pop up casually...... Whether the storm will come or not will be a matter of the future, anyway, there are only a few small waves left for now. ”

"Those fights and killings, although they can't provoke me for the time being, but sometimes they are quite in the way." The wizard drooped his eyelids and said, "For example, those goblins in Gringotts seem to be a little restless, huh?" ”

"Doesn't 'that guy' like to do that?" Maca shrugged her shoulders and said, "It's the same last time I provoked a war, I unscrupulously pulled giants and werewolves in and used them as tools to summon ......"

He paused, then chuckled and said, "This time too, don't talk about goblins...... As far as I know, 'he' has been in contact with vampires, but the results don't seem to be as good as 'he' expected. ”

"Really?" The witch seemed a little interested, "Reliable information? ”

"Of course," Maka said casually, "the relationship between vampires and wizards has grown closer and closer in recent years, and I have some business related to them. ”

"That's really ......," the wizard said thoughtfully, touching the beard on his lips.

"But these are really nothing, the focus is still on the wizard." Maca naturally changed the subject to the purpose of his trip, "Haven't some wizards gone crazy lately?" I think it's probably not related to 'that person'......"

Almost all of the wizards who haunt this club have a lot of sources. Maca took Tonks to stay here for hours, moving from one table to another, exchanging information with many wizards she didn't know each other.

By the time they left and returned to the black market, Maca had several clear and effective clues in her hands.

“…… So, who are they? Tonks followed Maca out of the ruined plaza strewn with howling wood, and finally couldn't help asking.

"Who?" Maca smiled and said, "I don't know. ”

"It's not an ordinary person anyway......," Tonks rolled his eyes, "Ordinary wizards don't have that strong aura. ”

"Anyway, isn't it enough to have a harvest?"

While the two were talking casually, they had unconsciously arrived at the destination of the intelligence-located general vendor area with the brightest lights in the black market.

For Maca, because there are nothing very unusual in the shops and shops here, and he just buys some ordinary goods that are not easy to find outside, so he really hasn't been here much.

But just deep in the area, there is actually a small area of rental housing used for lodging.

And the person they are looking for lives in this rental house all year round.

“…… This should be the place. ”

Standing on the side of the brightly paved stone path, Maca looked up at one of the old rented houses. The house looks a little shabby, but it looks like it has been renovated so it doesn't feel dilapidated.

The repainted brick walls look white, and even though it's only lit, it's still refreshing. It's just that all the windows of this house are covered by curtains, and you can't really see anything from the outside.

It's just that although there are not many people on this path, it is difficult to wait for a time when there is no one at all. She couldn't stay here for too long, so after a moment's observation, Maca naturally looked to the side of the house.

"Let's go around and look at the back of the house."

Maca beckoned to Tonks, and the two of them walked down the alleyway next to the house.

Compared to the side of the road in front, the light behind this is obviously much worse. Moreover, probably because of the limited land on the black market, these houses are very close together, because there are no doors and windows behind the houses, and there are completely mottled walls that are not moss.

"Wait for me in a moment."

As she spoke, Maca drew her wand and pressed it against the wall, unleashing a small probing spell. As the magic fed back the information little by little, the area of the house that was close to this side quickly took shape in Maca's mind.

After getting a clear idea of what was going on in the room, he bent down and tapped lightly on a brick near the ground, then pulled it out with his wand, and he quietly removed the brick.

Then he pulled out several bricks from the brick hole in succession, until the brick hole was completely open to the house, and then he straightened up again.

"Can you transform into an Animagus?" Maca asked.

"Huh? Belch...... No, it won't. Tonks shook his head.

"Then wait here! I'll just go in myself—"

Before he could finish speaking, he saw his figure shrink suddenly, causing Tonks to look down.

But she didn't expect that Maca's Animagus form was not only amazingly small, but also very fast, and she only had time to catch a glimpse of what seemed to be a blue shadow flashing in the brick hole, and she didn't have time to see what it was.

"This guy...... Is there anything he wouldn't? Tonks crouched down and grimaced at the hole.
